Chapter 68 Greed
A big hand snatched the bamboo stick away and threw it to the ground. The old soldier pointed at Xu Xian's nose and cursed: "Why are you wandering around with a bamboo stick? If you poke my little lady's eyes, she will be stabbed."
Cut you!"
His loud shout made people come back to their senses. Feng Dao clapped his hands and smiled and said: "Good lyrics! Good lyrics! Especially the last sentence, it has profound meaning and can be passed down through the ages." He asked Fu Liying again, "Girl, what are you doing?"
What do you think?"
"Uncle Niu must not be rude to Xu Dutou!" Fu Liying's expression did not change. She first reprimanded the old soldier and then said: "It is a blessing to hear such good music and lyrics. I admire Dutou's talent."
Feng Dao said narrowly: "Unfortunately, except for the last sentence, the rest are not appropriate. It is difficult to say whether he wrote it himself."
"Xia Guan did it in front of you. Grand Master, you are ruining Xia Guan's reputation by saying this."
"Okay, okay, you're done."
Fu Liying suddenly stood up and said: "Thank you very much for your hospitality today. I will take my leave now, little lady."
"Since Miss Liying is good at music and lyrics, why don't you sit down and have some tea with Xiao Ke."
"This song is enough to make people remember it for a long time. It's late now. If you don't go back home, you will be scolded by adults."
Feng Dao also reprimanded: "The lyrics are just for entertainment after dinner or for the fun of the daughter's boudoir. Even if you write a book, you can't protect the country. If you have this intention, it's better to train your troops and kill the enemy in front of the battle array."
It’s the duty of a soldier.”
Xu Xian acted like he had learned a lesson, quickly thanked Feng Dao for his teachings, and then sent Fu Liying downstairs. When passing the counter, he took out two more cans of tea, but Fu Liying, who originally said he was asking for money, insisted on giving him money.
, I searched for a long time but I didn’t bring any money.
"Small shops don't have to charge money. You can exchange it with something of equal value. You can redeem it later if you bring enough money. This beaded flower on my head is pretty good, so that's it." Xu Xian
As he spoke, he reached out to take it. He moved quickly and without waiting for Fu Liying to react, he took the beaded flower on her head in his hand.
This was already considered a frivolous move, and Rao Fu Liying blushed regardless of trivial matters. As for the old soldier, he pulled out half of the knife with a clanging sound.
"Since Xu Dutou is interested in this pearl flower, let's keep it here. If the Grand Master has time, he would like to come and sit at home. Come on, let's go back to the house!"
Xu Xian kept talking and walked her outside the store. She waited until the carriage was far away before turning around. When she turned around, she saw Feng Dao's old face.
"You are so cowardly that you dare to be frivolous even with Fu Yanqing's daughter. His family's generals are very fierce. There's no chance that a large group of men will come to kill you soon."
"No, if I die, Miss Liying will never see good lyrics again."
Feng Dao laughed softly and said: "Young people are too impatient, and they are not afraid of self-defeating."
"It's not easy to meet such a rich and powerful daughter. I should take the opportunity to express my feelings. If she is interested in me, she will respond. If she is not interested, even if she becomes a fairy, I will never be a licking dog again in this life!"
Gillian suddenly poked her head out of the window and asked, "Brother Xian, what is dog licking?"
The carriage was far away, and Xiaodong poked his head out of the carriage window, took a look, then retracted, giggling and saying: "Little lady, that man is still standing at the street corner. He looks good and can write poems.
It’s a pity that the official position is smaller and the family background is poorer.”
Waiting for no response, Xiaodong turned around and saw Fu Liying smiling with a dazed look on her face, murmuring to herself: "Everyone has been searching for him for thousands of times, but when he looked back, that person was there in the dim light.
, this word is really good..."
In the palace, Guo Weigang finished discussing important matters with several important ministers. He slapped the table and said, "That's it. Let Fu Yanqing move to the Tianping Army. I'll trouble you to deal with it as soon as possible. Don't make any mistakes."
Asking a military envoy to move to another town is not an ordinary official transfer. If you are not careful, big troubles will occur, so Guo Wei cannot help but take care of it.
It takes several years of hard work to master the ability of a Jiedushi to move to other vassal towns. Once the two sides fall out at this time, Jiedushi often has no choice but to kill him at the first sign.
The imperial court often used the excuse of moving towns to clear away troubles among its henchmen, and Jiedushi often took the opportunity to lure his soldiers to rebel. They were deeply suspicious of each other, and it was like fighting a wolf with a straw.
However, during Guo Wei's eastward expedition, he already knew that Gao Xingzhou was about to die, so he and Fu Yanqing had an agreement in advance. In addition, the two of them were related by marriage, so there would probably be no trouble in this move.
Several ministers took the order and retreated. Guo Wei called Wei Renpu again and said, "Daoji, please make another decree and ask Gao Huaide to come to the palace to be the commander of the east and west squads. This is what I promised Gao Xingzhou before."
"Your Majesty is benevolent and righteous, I will do it now!"
As soon as Wei Renpu left, Wang Jun left and returned again. He sat down on the brocade stool and Guo Wei hurriedly asked Li Tingfang to serve Wang Jun tea.
"I've already drunk a lot of water, so there's no need to go up. I'll leave after saying a few words to His Majesty."
Guo Wei leaned on the back of his chair and said with a smile: "Brother Wang, just say whatever you want. There is no one else here."
"Your Majesty will move Fu Yanqing to Yunzhou, and there will be no one in Qingzhou. What should we do if there is trouble among the generals?"
"Isn't there another Deputy Envoy of Jiedu? If he does well, I will straighten him up. If he does not do well, I will choose a loyal and capable one. Zhongjin will follow me for many years and let him go to Qingzhou to practice.
It’s okay.”
When Wang Jun heard this, he suddenly slapped his thigh, "Your Majesty will never let Li Chong enter or leave the Zhenping Lu Army."
Guo Wei was just talking casually. He didn't expect Wang Jun to have such a big reaction, so he asked: "Why not?"
"Li Chongjin is too young, and since he is His Majesty's nephew, he has always been arrogant. If he is allowed to leave Qingzhou, he may offend the military academy of the feudal town. If he is beheaded, it will be a small matter, but it will become a rebellion."
"Haha... That's right, I'll ask Zhongjin to keep a good watch on the door for me."
Wang Jun added: "Li Chongjin is not suitable, but Pinglu Jiedushi cannot be left empty."
"Brother Wang, if you have a good candidate, you might as well recommend him to me for a look."
Unexpectedly, Wang Jun slapped his chest and said, "I am not talking about anyone else, but you yourself!"
Hearing what Wang Jun said, Guo Wei couldn't sit still. He got off the throne and came to Wang Jun, "Brother Wang, isn't it good to be in Beijing? Why do you want to go to Qingzhou?"
Wang Jun said with a smile: "I still want to stay in the capital, but I also want to be the envoy to Pinglu."
"Haha... Brother Wang wants to lead Qingzhou from afar. It's not a matter of just a word. I will issue an edict now."
Wang Jun waved his hand and said: "Your Majesty has misunderstood. The minister wants to serve as the military governor of Pinglu at the same time!"
The so-called "remote leadership" is just a false title. It doesn't matter if you add a few more to Wang Jun, but it is very different if you hold concurrent posts. This means that Wang Jun has the right to handle specific large and small affairs in Qingzhou even though he is far away in Bianliang.
Wang Jun, who had already consolidated military and political power, wanted to concurrently serve as a local governor, which was absolutely against the rules.
Guo Wei refused directly, "The imperial court is already busy with military affairs. Brother Wang cannot be distracted and concurrently serve as Jiedushi. Moreover, this is against the rules!" After saying this, he sat back on the dragon chair.
"Why is it against the rules? Didn't His Majesty also serve as the Commander-in-Chief of the Tianxiong Army in the past?"
"That's different. As a supervisor, you know best. I really went to the Tianxiong Army at that time. Although I still had the actual duties of the Privy Council, most of the affairs of the Privy Council were handled by Yang Bin and Shi Hongzhao. Brother Wang
If you want to go out to Qingzhou as a privy envoy appointed by the prime minister, I won't stop you."
What Guo Wei said was reasonable, but Wang Jun was angry. He stood up and walked to Guo Wei, banging the table and saying, "Guo Que'er, Guo Que'er, you are so damn hearted, I
Because your whole family is dead, but you don’t even give me a small military governor. I was really blind before I became a brother with you..."
In Wang Jun's view, Guo Wei, who became the emperor, was weak and incompetent, and he was still a bitch. It was not enough to discuss it with him properly, so he had to scold him severely to get things done.
He slapped the table for a long time and cursed a cup of tea. Guo Wei did not dare to retaliate and just consoled him with a smile. It was not until Guo Wei agreed to his conditions that Wang Jun left with satisfaction.
When Wang Jun left the palace gate, Old Mu Tou spat heavily, strode into the palace, and said to Guo Wei, "Why does your majesty tolerate him so much?"
Guo Wei just leaned back in his chair and murmured to himself, "Liu Chengyou is just a young boy, and I respect him very much. Brother Wang, Brother Wang, am I not as good as Liu Chengyou in your eyes?"
"With just one order from His Majesty, the villain will lead his brothers to ransack his home tonight and chop off his head!"
"I told you that killing people is useless. You have people tell how he insulted me today so that all civil and military officials will know." After Old Mu Tou left, Guo Wei showed a sinister smile on his lips, "Wang
